PAGE EIGHT COURT’S RULING CALLED VICTORY FOR U. S. WOMEN LEADER. JANE SMITH* HAILS DECISION ON N. Y. WAGE LAW NEW YORK, June 5 (TP)—The national woman's party leader, Jane Norman Smith, tofay loudly hailed the supreme court's decision against the New York minimum wage law. She said that when the high court voided the law It was a "victory for women." "Why.” she said, "the state fixed minimum wage for women would have worked towards driving women out of Jobs and placing them on relief." The Jobs of some 50,000 women workers, she said, -ould nave gone to men and boys not subject to the law. Miss Smith quoted figures from other states which she said proved that the minimum wage law was un fair. She said that in Ohio hundreds of women were dismissed from ths laundry and dry-cleaning Industries. In Oregon, women cannery workers requested that the minimum wage scale be reduced. Miss Smtyh said Harvard university dismissed its scrub women rather than meet the de mands of the law. Said Miss Smith: "Women are wary of a gift that men don't want for themselves. The na tional women's party is opposed to long hours and low pay—but when labor laws and regulations become necessary we demand that they shall be t’sed on the work ana not upon the se:: of the worker.'* STATE PLANS TO SPEND $9,000 000 ON BRIDGES SPRINGFIELD, Mass., June 5 (TP)—Governor Curley announced today that 133 Massachusetts bridges which were wiped out by the March floods will be replaced at a cost of 19,000,000.
